A prompt modernization of the entire IT
infrastructure for the Portuguese healthcare hotline

Saúde 24, a public-private partnership initiated by Portugals Minister
of Health, plays a key role in the national healthcare system. In public health emergencies, when summer heat
becomes oppressive or when a new wave of flu strikes, the healthcare
hotline is the
most important point of contact. Saúde 24 health advisors rely on advanced
information technology to provide advice and information on healthcare
issues and services around the clock. FUTRO Thin Clients were installed as additional hotline
workstations, a PRIMERGY BX900 Blade Server for the data centers
server-based computing environment and PRIMERGY RX300 Rack
Servers for database operation. Saúde 24 also expanded the storage capacity
by an additional 4 terabytes with an ETERNUS DX80 disk storage system
that is backed up by an ETERNUS LT40., www.Saude24.pt
